Watervi]]e, LeSueur county, on the
Minneapolis g. St. Louis railroad, has
population OF about 1000 persons, and
is growing steadily. There are about
sixty Catholic families here. The church
is very neat frame building, and cost
III the neighborhood Of $4,000 Rev
Father Christie is parish priest. Be-
sides the Minneapolis & St. Louis road
which passes through Waterville, there
is still another li1le known as the Wis
consin, Minnesota & Pacific, which, at
the present time, runs it's trains between
Red Wing and Wateryille. The tarmzng g
lands hereabouts are among Minnesota g
best: to the north of the town may be
found the timber belt. while to the south
the excellent prarie lands abound. 'il1e
town site lies between two beautiful
lakes. known as Lakes Sekatah and Pe-
tonka. People from the different sec
tions of the state come here during the
summer season to indulge in the ex-
cellent sport of hunting and fishing, and
surely no better opportunities are
offered in this respect than here at Wa
terville. An extensive furniture factory,
two fine lumber mills, and -four mill
that turns out $50 barrels OF -four per
day, are among the items that this VII
lage can boast of, and with good reason
therefor. Among the thorough Irish
men and Irish-Americans OF this section
who would willingly lend their assist
a11ce to the land of shamrocks III every
legitimate way, are Postmaster OiLeary,
Messrs Hayes, Nightingale, Sheridan,
Connell. Courtney and DR.. Dolan. The
latter gentleman is a most successful
physician, and is a deserving man in
every way. Be it said in conclusion for
the Irish farmers of this section, that
they are a thrifty, go-ahead class OF
people, large majority of whom have
already laid by goodly competence for
the s'rainy day.

The Food of Young Calves.

See that the calf does not gorge it.
self, either because permitted to draw
it's milk from the mother. or because
it is fed too much. Let it just clever
ly fill itself, and not eat until its sides
stick out and it becomes pot-bellied.
If YOU uv, JiIc calf win probably have
the scours. 1t will get more food into
its stomach than it can possibly digest,
and the result will be indigestion and
sickness. Many a calf has suffered in
this way. 1t has no judgment, but
eats as long as it tastes good or it can
swallow. In wild state, it could not
not get it's stomach overloaded, as the
dam in that state would not give milk
enough to overload it. But in an ar
tilicial state. with her tactical organs
highly developed, she pours out three
or four times as much milk as the calf
needs. Hence the danger. Another
danger in feeding the calf arises from
not paying proper attention to the
temperature of the food, which for
some weeks should be as near blood
heat as possible. Cold food poured in
to the tender stomach, chills the whole
system of the calf and gives it shock
well calculated to make it sick. Scours
often originate in this way. But,
with proper food and care as to the
two points we have indicated, there
will seldom be any sickness of calves.
